Don’t have a Windows computer or want to run our software reliably 24/7? You can use a VPS (Virtual Private Server) to run Lune Auto Trader. A VPS allows you to host and operate the software 24/7 from any device (Windows, Mac, tablet, or mobile), making it a great option for uninterrupted, stable, and remote access.

Step 3: Launch and Register Lune Auto Trader

  1. Launch the Lune Auto Trader application.

  2. Click the “Register” button.

  3. Enter your Name and License Key provided at checkout.

This step activates your software and links it to your license.

Before you can add a trading account, you must first configure the connection to your trading platform.

  1. In the main Lune Auto Trader window, click the Platforms button.

  2. You will see a list of all supported platforms. You can use the search bar to find yours.

  3. Click on the platform you wish to use and follow the specific on-screen instructions to configure the connection. This may involve entering API keys or setting up a local connection.

For detailed, step-by-step instructions for each platform, please see our platform-specific guides here.

Step 6: Automate Your TradingView Strategy

The final step is to connect your TradingView strategy to Lune Auto Trader using TradingView alerts. This is how the software receives trade signals.

This process involves adding your strategy within Lune Auto Trader and using the unique Webhook URL and alert messages it generates to create the corresponding alert in TradingView. For a complete walkthrough, please follow our detailed guide.

Automate TradingView Strategies Guide

Lune Auto Trader supports unlimited accounts and is compatible with any of our supported platforms.

When adding a trading account:

  • Use the exact account name as it appears on your platform.

  • ⚠️ Account names are case-sensitive. Double-check for capital letters or spaces.

Troubleshooting

Trades Are Not Executing on my Account

If your TradingView alerts are firing but no trades are appearing, check the following:

  • Check the alert settings on TradingView: Ensure your alert message is set to {{strategy.order.alert_message}} and that your webhook url is correctly set. If it still does not try creating the alert again.

  • Incorrect Account Name: The account name in Lune Auto Trader must exactly match the name in your trading platform. For example, Account1 is different from account1. Account names are case-sensitive.

  • Platform Connection: Ensure your trading platform is properly connected. For NinjaTrader, the application must be running locally. For API-based platforms like Tradovate or ProjectX, ensure your API keys are correct and active.

  • Incorrect Webhook/Alert Messages: The alert messages in your TradingView strategy must be copied exactly from the instructions provided within Lune Auto Trader for your specific strategy configuration. Refer to our Automate TradingView Strategies Guide.

My TradingView Strategy is Not Taking Trades or Firing Alerts

If your TradingView Strategy is not taking any trades or firing alerts, check the following:

  • Strategy Settings Are Too Strict: Your filter settings or signal thresholds within the TradingView strategy might be too restrictive for the current market conditions, preventing any signals from being generated.

  • Order Size Is Not Configured Correctly: For some markets your TradingView Strategy's "Properties" settings must bet set to "Quantity". If its set to something else then it may not work. For example in the Futures it does not take any trades unless you set the Order Size to "Quantity".
